    Hi Dan,

    Do you have any advice for getting a free upgrade at a hotel? I being sent on business to Chicago for 4-5 weeks, and am bringing my wife and baby with me. My firm is paying for a regular room for me, but I would really like to upgrade to a suite so I dont have to keep the baby in the room with us? I will be staying at the Doubletree in Skokie, IL. Any advice is greatly appreciated.
    Thanks!

    ROUNDUP OF FREE INTERNATIONAL CALLS:

    The following access numbers all work to make free unlimited international calls:

    712-858-8094
    712-858-8883
    712-945-1111
    712-429-8888
    712-338-8288
    641-297-8888
    712-338-8849
    712-858-8042
    712-858-8034
    712-858-8049

    As for how it works, and the answer to the mystery of why the numbers all have Iowa area codes, Tech Crunch says:

    “The founder created his own telephone company in Iowa. Iowa is apparently the only state taking advantage of an FCC kickback scheme that gives telco’s a portion of the fees generated from every inbound call to an Iowa number. So when you call the AllFreeCalls phone number, a portion of any long distance fees you are paying go to the company. The kickback is apparently authorized via the Universal Service Fund. These kickbacks are enough on average to more than cover the international outbound calling fees.”
